Armistice Day

I am old enough to remember that November 11th used to be called Armistice Day. That name held from 1918 until around 1970 when some "enlightened" souls in my country decided to make it a second Memorial Day. Memorial Day is observed in May. So now, instead of celebrating the end of a war, we have a big propaganda show about the troops, especially those who made the "supreme sacrifice". Is it wrong to celebrate the PEACE that followed a long, bloody, disgusting world war? Seems to me that the emphasis is on the wrong thing these past few decades.
